Old Pics

While at my cousin Jennifer's house, I scanned some of my Aunt Anne's pictures. A few were in pretty bad shape, like this one of my brother and me, but I decided to just scrap it 'as is'.

And, like I said about this picture of "Christ of the Ozarks", I remember going to visit it when I was a kid and I think I remember music playing from some loud speakers. I also remember getting a handmade doll in Eureka springs - I think it was called an apple-head doll. I thought she was pretty ugly at the time - but I guess when your head is made from an apple you don't have much chance to be beautiful! I'm not sure if she was really made from an apple but I think I do still have her and now I am going to have to see if I can find her!
I did a search for this statue and found it - here are a couple of links - it's kind of a strange place...

Oh my, Jeff was tired when that picture was taken, his eyes are so droopy!

Did you notice the picture on the right hand side in the picture of you and Jeff? It looks like a picture of your mom and dad, and possibly you as a baby?

You are absolutely correct! I think I actually have a copy of that picture somewhere around here. I grew up looking at it because we had one in our house too.
